Al-Tirmidhi Hadith<br />

Hadith 627<br />

AbuHurayrah<br />

Narrated by<br />

The Prophet (peace be upon him) was asked about the things which would enable most people to enter Paradise. He<br />

answered: Being careful about one's obligations to Allah, and good behaviour. Thereafter, he was asked: What are those<br />

things which will lead a person into Hell? He answered: His mouth and genitals.<br />

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith<br />

Hadith 5.379 Narrated by<br />

Zaid bin Thabit<br />

When we wrote the Holy Qur'an, I missed one of the Verses of Surat-al-Ahzab which I used to hear Allah's Apostle reciting.<br />

Then we searched for it and found it with Khuzaima bin Thabit Al-Ansari. The Verse was:<br />

-Among the Believers are men Who have been true to Their Covenant with Allah, Of them, some have fulfilled Their<br />

obligations to Allah (i.e. they have been Killed in Allah's Cause), And some of them are (still) waiting." (33.23) So we wrote<br />

this in its place in the Qur'an.<br />

OCEANS:<br />

18:109 - Say: "If the ocean were ink (wherewith to write out) the words of my Lord sooner would the<br />

ocean be exhausted than would the words of my Lord even if we added another ocean like it<br />

for its aid." 2453<br />

2453 The Words and Signs and Mercies of Allah are in all Creation, and can never be fully set out in human language,<br />

however extended our means may be imagined to be. (18.109)<br />

31:27 - And if all the trees on earth were pens and the Ocean (were ink) with seven Oceans behind<br />

it to add to its (supply) yet would not the Words of Allah be exhausted (in the writing): for Allah<br />

is Exalted in power Full of Wisdom. 3616<br />

3616 "Words of Allah": his wonderful Signs and Commandments are infinite and cannot be expressed if all the trees were<br />

made into pens, and all the wide Ocean, multiplied seven times, were made into ink. Any Book of His Revelation<br />

would deal with matters which man can understand and use in his life: there are things that man can never fathom.<br />

Nor would any praise that we could write with infinite resources be adequate to describe His power, glory, and<br />

wisdom. (31.27)<br />

81:6 - When the oceans boil over with a swell; 5975<br />

5975 See lii. 6 and n. 5041. (6) The oceans, which now keep their bounds, will surge and boil over, and overwhelm all<br />

landmarks. At present the waters seem to have reached their fixed and normal levels, but the whole equilibrium will<br />

then be disturbed. Such will be the complete wreck of this transitory world, at the approach of the dawn of the<br />

permanent Reality. But these are physical symbols, relating to the outer nature surrounding the physical nature of<br />

man. The remaining six. viz.,: the 7th to the 12th, describe the ordering of the new World, from which all present<br />

seeming incongruities will be removed. (81.6)<br />

82:3 - When the Oceans are suffered to burst forth; 6000<br />

6000 Cf. lxxxi. 6, "when the oceans boil over with a swell". Here, "are suffered to burst forth" expresses the end of the<br />

present order of things. This may be in two ways, (1) The barrier which keeps within their respective bounds the<br />

various streams of salt and fresh water (lv. 20, n. 5185) will be removed; (2) the Ocean will overwhelm the whole<br />

Globe. (82.3)<br />

OLIVE:<br />

23:20 - Also a tree springing out of Mount Sinai which produces oil and relish for those who use it<br />

for food. 2880<br />

2880 For Arabia the best olives grow round about Mount Sinai. The fig, the olive, Mount Sinai, and the sacred city of<br />

Makkah are mentioned together in association in xcv. 1-3, where we shall consider its meaning. Olive oil is an<br />

ingredient in medicinal ointments. If used for food, the olive has a delicious flavour, Cf. also xxiv. 35, where the olive is<br />

called a Blessed Tree, and n. 3000. (23.20)<br />
